Now imagine you can get him to personally conceive and oversee the production of the coolest statue in the world.

Then imagine we put that huge sucker in a period-style box, with custom artwork by Robb and Irrational concept artist Jorge Lacera. And that box went in the collector’s edition box, so you could leave that guy unpunched in his original packaging while you tear happily into the rest of the goodies.

Now imagine that nine-and-a-half-inch statue looked like this:

That monster is what’s in the Ultimate Songbird Edition of BioShock Infinite. But if your sugar daddy won’t pony up for the whole megillah, there’s also the Premium Edition, which includes a giant pile of swag:

A 3-inch baby version keychain of the sold-out Murder of Crows vigor bottle replica.

Of course, all of the above is also included in the Ultimate Songbird Edition. And for the true nerds in the audience, the Songbird statue, the Murder of Crows keychain, and the Handyman all come in separate custom packaging.

You owe it to yourself (and to poor, sad Ken Levine, who can always be spotted by his tiny crutch that sits forlornly by the Christmas dinner table) to check the thing out in this lovely display made by our amazing web team. I like it. My mother likes it. So it must be good.

All collector’s editions are available for pre-order now in the US and in Europe and Australia starting Monday, October 22nd.

Now that’s an awesome collectors edition, unfortunately I won’t be ponying up for the most expensive/awesome one, I will probably be settling for the premium one which is still pretty awesome. This game looks fantastic and I can’t wait to play it.

While I’m really looking forward to getting the game, and would love to have that Songbird statue, I’m not all that sure I’m willing to throw that kind of cash down when none of the other items besides the lithograph look that good. The fact you’re doing a digital soundtrack doesn’t help my unwillingness to part with my money either — not after what the last game got.

Any luck you could make an edition with just the game and Songbird statue? You’d have my money in a heartbeat if you did.

God of War: Ascension also has a figurine and the whole package costs $80. Maybe that Songbird is really huge like the Skyrim dragon???

I am between the normal version and the $150 version. I don’t care about the content in the Premium Edition. I only care about the figurine, but it is really expensive so IDK, maybe I will just go with the regular version. D:

I guess it’s PC/PS3 Premium Edition for me. Even though that statue looks beyond awesome. I can’t justify putting down the extra $70 for the Ultimate Songbird Edition when I’m getting the exact same things minus the statue in the Premium Edition. Epecially when that extra $70 can get me a brand new game or 2-3 older games. :)
